Spanish national team coach Vicente del Bosque has responded today to questions about his reaction to the news that Xavi Hernandez is risking serious injury that could rule him out of the World Cup if he continues to play with Barcelona for the rest of the season.

But in comments reported by Marca, La Roja's coach expressed a measured view of the situation.

"We have to trust the club's doctors, the player, his father, and also Pep Guardiola who have all said they would not risk Xavi's chances of going to the World Cup."
